The momentum has shifted. The adults are taking back what the children thought was theirs for a while.
Science is entering it's biggest revolution as the genome project has opened the floodgates on the truth. The footing Intelligent Design is placed upon is the fact that the genetic record contradicts Random Mutations & Natural Selection.
Common Descent is becoming Common Designer with intelligent alterations to the programming. Macro-evolution has become only Micro-evolution with species boundaries. The recognition that the genetic informational difference between species is to sophisticated for a concerted grouping of changes to jump the species boundaries puts the final nail in the coffin.
For Americans it becomes believe in Jesus Christ or reject Him, for the pagan God of secular materialism is being toppled.
The just-so stories are no longer fooling the public because they become more and more fanciful.

Yes. Creationism is being daily shown to be more and more a childish fantasy.
> secular materialism is being toppled.
Yeah, yeah, any day now.... Creationists have been trottign that out for centuries.
